So I don't have a huge interest in 4chan specifically but I think this will be an interesting situation. From the site I found:

Firing one of the first shots in the net neutrality war, AT&T has blocked 4chan’s /b/ image board. AT&T subscribers are unable to connect to /b/ and /r9k/ (both of which are hosted on img.4chan.org). However, subscribers can get on any of the so-called «worksafe» boards that 4chan.org offers.UPDATED 1: Confirmation comes from several Reddit users that the website has indeed been blocked in a number of areas in the US and that it is not a technical issue.

This is starting to spread all over the net, though, and there's no telling which site will have the most up to date news so just google it when you read this.

Being unemployed and not having much to do tomorrow, I will be following this with much anticipation and glee. I don't like the idea of the internet being censored and I can't wait to see how 4chan responds.

Of course, AT&T could realize how much shit they're about to be in and quickly reverse their decision...

Yes, they could. But anything Anon does is done in a manner similar to holy war. Get riled up by an authority (different members of anon) spouting lofty ideals, send frenzied minions at the target of rage, and then things slowly peter out as people lose interest. They swore they wouldn't rest until Scientology was no more, and look how well that worked out...

Yeah, I'm kind of wishing they had taken Scientology down, but let's face it: AT&T is a much easier target. Any damage done from 4chan attacks notwithstanding, they're a huge company centered around capitalism; any big PR storm where they're the bad guy is seriously going to hurt their business.

I'm just waiting to see which one hurts them worse, the bad PR or the 4chan attacks...

They swore they wouldn't rest until Scientology was no more, and look how well that worked out...

That's still ongoing. Arguably, Scientology has been completely changed by what Anonymous did. Many, many individuals got out of the cult as a direct result and the pre-existing opposition movement has been rejuvenated, with many of the moralfag Anons joining their ranks. The media no longer kills any CoS related stories out of fear of being sued, as there's so much evidence now available to back up criticisms, thanks to Anon.

If John Travolta leaves, comes out and speaks out, it almost certainly will be all over, and apparantly he's teetering on the brink of it.

But anyway - that's for another discussion. Anonyomous won't necessarily regard this as a grave insult to free speech, so much as someone inviting them to conduct shenannigans. I'm sure fun will be had.

I'm reading a book instead of sleeping, so I'm curious to see when the lulz will be carried out. This is interesting to me because while yes, it's lulz for 4chan (least we forget), it is also a defense of net neutrality. hmm.

I don't know, man. I'm afraid that talking about the lulz might keep the lulz from being carried out. I'm superstitious like that. I don't even like having my picture taken.Maybe these are the lulz? Fuck, who knows...
